3 1. Background The core mandate of the National Research Foundation (NRF) of South Africa, is to promote and support research through funding, human capital development and the provision of the necessary facilities in order to facilitate the creation of knowledge, innovation and development in all fields of research. In order to realise this mandate, the NRF has made substantial commitment and investment towards supporting emerging researchers to intensify and strengthen African and global networks. This is in line with the National Development Plan 2030, and the national priorities as set out in the Medium Term Strategic Framework (MSTF). The continuous improvements in research and innovation set South Africa on a competitive platform globally to leverage effective partnerships and funding. As part of the In-Country Scholarship Programme, in which more than two dozen African universities and university networks participate and which annually supports some 1000 African postgraduates, the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) in partnership with the NRF is able to offer scholarships for postgraduate studies at South African universities. The programme is cofunded by the German Federal Ministry of Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) and the NRF. The scholarship is aimed at future academic staff development without neglecting other sector demands for academically trained personnel. 2. Rationale International strategic partnerships remain the vehicle for development, within the context of the advancement of research and human capacity development. The DAAD-NRF Joint In-Country Scholarship Programme is a means of promoting academic, scientific and technological cooperation. The programme is crucial for the NRF as it assist the organisation to achieve its long-term objective of establishing high level strategic international collaborative networks and promoting research and knowledge generation through human capital development, as outlined in the NRF Strategy This Strategy, as aligned to the national strategic frameworks such as the Department of Science and Technology (DST) Ten Year Innovation Plan, the Human Capital Development Framework as well as the National Development Plan (NDP), seeks to ensure that South Africa has appropriately qualified human resources to produce knowledge that is both globally competitive, and able to transform the socio-economic landscape of the country. 3 P a g e

4 3. Objectives The NRF lauds this contribution of the German government as being of invaluable support to its own efforts. The objectives of this funding instrument are to: significantly increase the number of post-graduate candidates receiving quality education and training; contribute significantly to our national efforts of human capital development, especially at our tertiary institutions but also for the public and private sectors; and to engage in the South African PhD Project and, thereby, fulfilling one of the key strategic objectives of the NRF VISION Areas of Support DAAD and NRF offer up to 120 new scholarships for Master s and Doctoral studies in The programme addresses young and rising candidates who aim at acquiring a Master s or Doctoral degree. Preference will be given to full-time registered young South Africans and permanent residents. University staff-members studying towards a doctoral qualification will also be considered. Staff members should be enrolled for full-time doctoral studies and be exempted from teaching. In exceptional cases, a limited extent of teaching obligations may be accepted but has to be motivated in writing. The host institution has to document precisely and convincingly the quantity and content of the lecturing duties and their compliance with the prevailing goal of the academic qualification of the candidate. An intrinsic link between the teaching obligations and the content of the degree programme is indispensable. The application is open to all subject areas with strong relevance to the national development of South Africa. This will include science, engineering, technology, applies social science, environmental and other special areas of law, but excludes the humanities and fine arts. 5. Application Process The NRF online process for call for proposals will apply with this grant. All documentation related to the call is obtainable from the NRF website. To apply, use the NRF Online Submission system. Please consult the DAAD-NRF A p p l i c a t i o n Guide for 2017 for further instructions about the application process. 4 P a g e

Category Value (Rand per annum) Maximum period of support Master s years Doctoral years *Note: The period of support is calculated from the date of initial registration for the degree. Students upgrading from a Master s degree to a PhD are expected to complete an annual progress report, stating clearly that they have upgraded their studies. Upgrades will be included in the DAAD/NRF Joint In-Country Scholarship Programme. Scholarship holders are not allowed to change to any other DAAD or NRF funding streams during the tenure of the award. However scholarship holders are encouraged to apply to other funding streams/ programmes on completion of their funding (e.g. completion of Master s degree and wanting to apply for Doctoral funding). Additional research funds and travel grants to conferences are not awarded to awardees on this scholarship: the exception will be for the short term (2-6 months) research visits to Germany mentioned below Short-term research scholarships The scholarship-holder may apply for a short-term research fellowship (duration 2-6 months) in Germany where parts of the thesis-related research would significantly gain from this research visit because of required equipment, co-supervision or similar reasons. The applicant will have to present a current invitation by a German professor who is willing to supervise the research during the envisaged stay in Germany. A convincing letter of motivation and a clearly defined time schedule for the research stay must be attached. Application forms for these short-term research fellowships and further information can be obtained from: daad@wits.ac.za. 14 P a g e

15 9. Post-Award Process Successful candidates will be notified by the NRF regarding the NRF-DAAD Joint In-Country Scholarship award.
